The academic program that leads to the degree in Mechatronics Engineering guides, nurtures, and prepares students to become graduates who, within five years after graduation, will achieve the following objectives:

PEO # 1: Career

Work as professionals in diverse organizations or as entrepreneurs, able to participate in innovation, research, and development in control and automation systems.

PEO #2: Practice

Practice Mechatronics Engineering in the design and implementation of control and automation systems, demonstrating technical expertise, collaborating, and communicating effectively.

PEO #3: Continuous Learning

Continually expand their skill-set and knowledge, through independent study or high-level training such as professional certifications, graduate degrees or web seminars.

PEO #4: Leadership & Professional Engagement

Achieve and maintain positions of influence in the community of Mechatronics Engineering professionals, showing organizational engagement, social responsibility, and ethics.

As a graduate from the Bachelor in Mechatronics Engineering you will be able to analyze, design, evaluate, innovate, and implement mechatronic systems, with tools and methodologies of electronics, programming, manufacturing systems, electrical machines, automation, industrial robotics, mechanisms, and automotive networks. You will develop and improve automated equipment and implement technological alternatives in the production, service, and computer processes for the design of mechatronic systems, with ethics and social commitment and responding to the challenges of globalization.

Once you have finished your study program, you will have a bachelor´s degree in addition to a licenciatura degree. Therefore, your studies will be recognized worldwide.

In addition to enhancing your entry skills, at the Bachelor in Mechatronics Engineering we propose to:

• Help you have a successful career in Mechatronics Engineering, showing mastery of the theoretical-practical aspects of this area.
• Be an effective communicator, and a member of multidisciplinary work teams, decision-maker, and leader.
• Encourage you to understand the global impact of the profession and recognize the social responsibility of the mechatronic engineer.
• Train you so you recognize the importance of continuous self-led learning for professional development.

• Ability and inclination for physics and math.
• Interested and eager to understand and develop technology.
• Willing to work for the greater good and to be successful.
• Determination to achieve goals through learning.

Mechatronics Engineering graduates will have developed the following skills:

1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics.
2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. An ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences (oral & written).
4. An ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
5. An ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives.
6. An ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. An ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
